The cream with some added steam

I have never fallen in love with a cream as much as I have with this one. When I heard about it, I did really want to try it, and I was supposed to be getting it in a beauty box but for some reason or another it didn't make an appearance in mine! Then looking online I couldn't part with my £12.95 for something I wasn't sure how my skin would react to. But then luckily a pot appeared in a beauty box I received last month and I was over the moon!


After trying it out for about a month now I feel that I can write a better review on this product. I have used it everyday, putting it on my face just before I go to sleep. I have also been suffering with dry hands, so I have been using it as a hand cream also. You can use it anywhere really but this is what I have been trying out. Firstly, it smells amazing! It has a subtle scent of lavender and gosh it's lovely to put on your skin last thing at night! I find the scent really relaxing and calming. When I put the cream on my face I feel as though it sits there, but when I wake up in the morning- no trace! Not oily or anything and my skin is just amazingly soft! This is now my go to cream. I have combination skin, sometimes its dry, sometimes its oily and I do get breakouts so trying new things is not something I like doing but with this product I am having no problems.


You get a lot of product for the size of the pot as I find with this product a little does go a really long way, but you can always put more on if you feel the need to. I'm going to continue using this product as I'm really getting on with it and who knows it may be standing in line for a re-purchase! With the rate it's going at the moment I am almost certain. There are many different styles of tin you can buy and it's so hard to choose which one to get!


Steam Cream.

Cupcake Lush Facemask

"We invented this mask for younger skins and for those who are new to face masks and want to use something that’s cheerful and cheeky but still effective and good at its job.

The serious side of this mask has linseed infusion to nourish and soften the skin, fresh mint for toning, cocoa butter to moisturise and rhassoul mud to absorb grease and give a deep cleanse

The lighthearted side of this mask has cocoa powder, vanilla absolute and spearmint oil - because we wanted this to bring all the comfort of a chocolate bar.  Well, a chocolate bar that doesn’t cause spots, of course!"

Highly recommend this product when it is on it smells amazing! As you can see I have already used a fair bit of this face mask but there is plenty more to go! For those of you who haven't tried Lush face masks before they have to be used within 3 week of purchase and there is a date on them. They are to be stored in the fridge and it is recommended that you do 2 face masks a week. But my skin is loving this face mask so I highly recommend it for those of you with problem skin.

Glossy Box- April- Earth day edition!

This is my review of this months Glossybox! It was in relation to Earth Day. So all the products are organic!

5 products this month, with 3 full size products in here! This is my first GB, I was a loyal subscriber to Carmine so as you all know they are no longer around, so thought I would try these guys! On with the products!

CAUDALIE- Vinosource SOS Thirst-Quenching Serum
This is a 10ml sample size but no way is this true, squeezing the bottle and only once I'm nearing the bottom do I see any product coming out. Used this last night, my mum loved it! However I'm not really sold, partly due to the lack of product. But my skin does feel soft this morning! So this is kind of a hit and miss for me I'm afraid.

KAI- Perfume Oil

Gutted. Half full. An what a rubbish size sample! It's not even worth it. I don't like the smell its far too strong and floral for my personal taste. With other beauty boxes I have experienced this would of been classed as an added bonus product! This one is a thumbs down for me.

FIGS AND ROUGE- Lip Balm in Rambling Rose
This is good, beautiful packaging! An lip balm is always usable. Not too keen on the smell/taste I have it in though as others seem to have much nicer ones! But I can always use this so thats great! Perfect size to take with me on my Holidays! It says you can use it on your face also/skin in general but I don't think I'll be doing that! OH! It's full size by the way! Full Size £3.29 (What an odd price!)

AYUURI- In Sandalwood
Happy to see this, great size product, full size YAY. Smell is quite nice looks like it could be really moisturising. I can't wait to try this out. You can never go wrong with body wash. Full Size £4.95.

INIKA- Black eyeliner
Glad to see this, lovely make up product I will always use eyeliner. Can't go wrong! Happy to see I got black as it is a useful colour. This is also full size £11.75. I'll show the swatches now.

Thin line- one stroke.
Fatter line- building it up.


Overall I'm happy with my box but not thrilled, I've had better, but I love the theme and the box itself. For me what let it down was the perfume sample. When seeing what other people got, this seems a little tight. But there we go! Win some you loose some. I don't think I will be getting another Glossy box. I'm awaiting the new mysteries LUXBOX. An considering going back to She Said Beauty. However I'm debating whether these boxes are worth the money. But hey, its fun right?!
